For 10 years, Nicole + Felicia has been a name on the lips of those looking for something both luxurious and unique for their wedding day. The label offers a heady mix of architectural precision and feminine form, and has garnered much acclaim for it. Nicole + Felicia was founded by sisters, and namesakes, Nicole and Felicia Chang; the brand emerged from a legacy of family craftsmanship rooted in bridal artistry and textile expertise. From their debut in 2015, the duo’s vision has been clear: to create gowns that celebrate strength and sensuality.

The dresses honour the precision of couture tailoring, but with a distinctly modern hand. Think structured bodices, sculptural draping and intricate appliqué – which have become a signature. Over the past decade, Nicole + Felicia’s designs have graced red carpets, royal weddings and runways across the globe. For 2025, this milestone anniversary marks a celebration of heritage alongside an intention to continue to push the boundaries of form and texture.

Fall/Winter 2026

Shown in New York, the Fall/Winter 2026 collection honours the brand’s roots while embracing a bold sculptural language for future brides. Each gown was crafted as an ode to the atelier’s mastery: refined corsetry and architectural volume that are softened by intentionally chosen fabrics including organza, Mikado and lace. The fashion show celebrated Nicole + Felicia’s decade-long journey of transformation and highlighted the essence of what they do best: creating powerful silhouettes that celebrate the body.

Sculptural flowers bloom across gowns, geometric beading that feels like modern mosaic and feathers that whisper and add graceful movement. The collection is a love letter to the label’s journey of craftsmanship.
